Why Choose to Study at a Boarding School in France?

One of the primary reasons students and parents choose boarding schools is for more challenging academics. In boarding schools, students are stimulated intellectually in ways they never were before in their schools. This is because the class size is smaller, with an average length of 12 students per class. As a result, students are encouraged to think and share ideas, and they actively participate in their learning.

Another reason to choose a boarding school is the availability of teachers. Teachers live on campus and are available for extra help after school hours. This means that students can get the help they need to succeed academically.

France is a beautiful country with many opportunities to explore art, food, and entertainment. Attending a boarding school in France allows students to experience all the government offers. Paris, for example, is home to some of the world's best restaurants, art galleries, and entertainment venues.

  • The videos you have all made, the activities you have thought of and the ability to keep the Ermitage community upbeat, happy and engaged as learners during this time has been amazing. My daughter has continued to be motivated to learn and keep up with her lessons and school work, despite the new way of working.
